Women's Golf Headline

Florida’s
Camilla Hedberg led the way for the second-straight day of the 2014
SunTrust Gator Women’s Invitational. The junior Gator golfer proved consistent
on Mark Bostick Golf Course and finished the day a notable 1-over (70-71-141)
totaling a tournament-leading nine birdies after round two.

Redshirt
sophomore Katie Mitchell improved by a stellar 10 strokes in day two,
carding a 72 (+2) and rolling off two birdies this afternoon. Competing as an
individual for the Orange and Blue, freshman Karolina Vlckova remains in
the top-5 individually, sitting at just 3-over heading into the final round.

As a
team, UF climbed one spot to finish 10th (597). Kent State was the lone squad
to shoot under-par in day two (279) and jumped the team leaderboard from eighth
place to first. Marijosse Navarro of Texas A&M fired a 69 in the second
round to even her tournament score (71-69-140) and claim the top spot
individually.

Head
Coach Emily Glaser Says: “The number was better today, but
still not what we’re capable of. The team played more solid and with more
confidence than yesterday. Still, a lot of our mistakes are getting in our own
way and you can’t do that on a golf course that’s playing very difficult or against
a good field.”

“The
goal remains the same for tomorrow: we need to go out there and take it one at
a time and see if we can move up the leaderboard, which I think we can. I think
we’ve saved a lot of good golf for the final round and it would be great for
the team to end on a positive note as we move toward postseason. We’re very
talented; we just haven’t had our best stuff this weekend.”
